Abstract
In the published article, the mean values of the track-averaged (LETt) and dose-averaged (LETd) linear energy transfer were calculated using histograms with a bin width of 0.5 keV/μm. This binning resolution was insufficient, leading to inaccuracies in the reported mean values. Recalculation with a finer bin width of 0.05 keV/μm yielded corrected values, which are presented in the revised Table 3 and Figures 6, 7. While the numerical values differ from those originally reported — most notably for 60Co and for the LETd the overall trends and conclusions of the original study remain unchanged. These corrections improve the quantitative accuracy of the results for all irradiation conditions (air, mylar, and glass).
期刊介绍:
Radiation Physics and Chemistry is a multidisciplinary journal that provides a medium for publication of substantial and original papers, reviews, and short communications which focus on research and developments involving ionizing radiation in radiation physics, radiation chemistry and radiation processing.
The journal aims to publish papers with significance to an international audience, containing substantial novelty and scientific impact. The Editors reserve the rights to reject, with or without external review, papers that do not meet these criteria. This could include papers that are very similar to previous publications, only with changed target substrates, employed materials, analyzed sites and experimental methods, report results without presenting new insights and/or hypothesis testing, or do not focus on the radiation effects.
